THREE MILLIONAIREs on SUCCESS

Brains, Pluck, Honesty, Tact. Energy,
Pnnetuality and Perseverance, the
Requisites.
No three men in the world are
better authorized to speak upon the
way to get rich than Jay Gould, Rus
sell Sage, and Cyrus W. Field, for
all OF them were poor country boys
who have risen TO vast wealth. Gould
is worth over a hundred millions, Sage
has probably half that much, and
Field owns twenty-odd millions. A
correspondent has interviewed these
men on "Success in Life" and their
views, while somewhat abstract, are
interesting and suggestive.
Sage says that a young man with
"brains, pluck, honesty, tact and en-
ergy" is pretty apt to succeed, and
that his chances are better in CONNER.
cial life than professional life. "For
every wealthy and famous doctor,
lawyer, artist, actor, author and poet
you may name," he says, 81 think
can name Ave or ten great men in
commerce the world over" His rules
for a young man making start are
as follows: "Getting position; being
faithful and observant; keeping his
mouth shut; making his employer feel
that he would be lost without him;
aud being polite" He then con-
denses all his advice into one great
word, honesty.
Gould believes that young mans
chances are far less in New York than
they were forty years ago, and that if
he does succeed he must shun extrav-
agance, and 90 to work with ga devo-
ton strong enough to enable him to
set all other things and passions
aside," and with "a steadiness OF pur.
pose and thrift" He thinks that
every young man should learn a
trade, should read the daily papers
thoroughly, should keep out of bad
and 60 to work with will.
'The boy who does that is bound to
get on in the world" concludes the
wizard of Wall street.
Cyrus w. Field declares that"punc-
tuality, honesty and brevity are the
watchwords of success" and he gives
this useful Renaissance:
"Never write long letter. A bust.
ness man hasn't time to read it. If
you have anything to say, be brief.

They Pass Resolutions Against Certain
Faculty Methods and Regulations.
BOSTON, Oct. N.-After electing their class
day officers last night. the senior class Of Har-
ward University voiced the sentiments Of the
under graduates by the adoption Of the follow
ing resolutions:
Resolved That express In the strongest terms
condemnation Of the present method Of assigning
at Harvard and urge system based senior.
ity Of class DO adopted
Reo,red That express utter disapprova OF tho
faculty regulation forbiddng base bali nine to play
practice games az ainst professional teams.
Resolved That we deem 1t inadvisabe for our varsity
10 row Columbia Just previous to the Yale race
The first two resolutions were passed unani-
mously. and the last by a vote Of 1856 to 8. The
formal expression Of these sentiments by the
senior class has created quite O sensation at
Harvard. Nearly every student has held these
opinions for some time. but heretofore no pub
lie or official action has been taken on them.
Tho first resolution Is protest against the
present chuckaluck system of room assign
msut. by which the sub-freshmen draw the
best rooms, and the upper classmen are frozen
out. The second resolution shows that Har-
ward men wish their nine to have all the ad-
vantages that the mines OF the other colleges
enjoy. The third resolution was passed. not
because Harvard has any grudge against
Columbia, but because the Harvard Columbia
race only serves to give Yale points. and get
the Harvard crew all out OF trim for the great
race. which comes 80 soon afteri 1t.
